High-level martial arts: Invincibility starts with basic archery.

Upon hearing Chen Fan's question, Chang Fei and the others were all on tenterhooks.

They had watched Ling Yu grow up. Although his arrogant personality caused them some resentment, they couldn't bear to see him have his cultivation destroyed by Chen Fan and become an ordinary person.

Once Chen Fan has made up his mind, it won't change, and nothing they say will change that.

However, if Ling Yu betrays the association and does something disloyal...

That would be a serious matter.

Deep down, Shi Tao hoped that this was just his imagination.

However, reality still disappointed him.

"I hit him."

Ling Yu admitted it directly.

Shi Tao's face immediately filled with pain.

The disbelief on Chang Fei, Shen Si, and the others' faces turned into anger.

Chen Fan glanced at everyone.

He could probably sense how everyone felt at that moment.

He swept his palm across Ling Yu's eyes, and Ling Yu's eyes regained their clarity.

He looked around blankly.

I saw my master, whose eyes were filled with pain.

They encountered Chang Fei and his group, who seemed to want to tear them to pieces.

Upon seeing the Song family and others gloating on the sidelines, he had an uneasy premonition.

Could it be that he was under a soul-searching spell and blurted out that matter?

"Tell me, why did you do this!"

Shen Si's angry voice rang out: "Don't you know what the consequences of this will be for everyone?!"

"Uncle Shen, what are you saying?"

Ling Yu stammered.

"Even at this point, you still won't tell the truth?" Shen Si angrily pointed a finger at him and said, "You just admitted yourself that you were the one who made the call!"

"What! Me!"

Ling Yu was startled.

"That's right, kid. That guy surnamed Chen just now used the Soul Searching Technique on you. You've already admitted it yourself. We all heard it clearly," Song Wu sneered.

"It's no use trying to argue anymore. Your master won't protect you anymore."

"Shi Tao, Shi Tao, you probably never dreamed that after teaching him for most of your life, you would end up handing over a traitor who betrayed his own side, would you?"

Song Tian laughed heartily, feeling extremely happy.

"No, Master, that's not how it is!"

Ling Yu quickly said, "All of this was done on purpose by that guy surnamed Chen. He deliberately misled me into saying those things. Master, please believe me!"

"Yeah?"

Chen Fan laughed, "Then let me take it as me trying to mislead you. But one thing at a time, it's an undeniable fact that you instructed Xiao Hong. Now, you should pay the price."

The next moment, he slapped Ling Yu's dantian, and his violent true essence surged in, directly tearing the latter's dantian to shreds.

"puff!"

Ling Yu coughed up a mouthful of blood, his eyes widening in shock.

He could feel that after his dantian shattered, the true essence in his body was flowing away wildly, disappearing completely in just a few seconds, leaving him with no internal energy left.

As long as the dantian remains, even if all internal energy is absorbed, there is still a possibility of making a comeback.

If the dantian is gone, this possibility will no longer exist.

"My inner energy! My inner energy!"

After realizing what was happening, Ling Yu cried out in panic.

It sounded so pitiful that even Shen Si and the others couldn't bear to listen any longer.

But when he thought about how he had told the Song family the news for his own selfish interests, leading to the current situation, he wanted nothing more than to slap him to death.

"President, this guy is yours to deal with."

Chen Fan looked at Shi Tao and said.

Logically speaking, even if he had simply killed Ling Yu, no one present would have found fault with it.

However, this matter involves quite a few people, and if we're talking about who is the most heartbroken and saddened, it's the president.

Therefore, let's hand over Ling Yu, who has been stripped of his martial arts skills, to him.

Whether he personally cleans up the mess as he said before, or secretly lets him go, it has nothing to do with me anymore.

Of course, if Ling Yu survives by chance and is still not satisfied, and is plotting revenge, then don't blame me for eliminating him completely.

"it is good."

Shi Tao took a deep breath and walked up to Ling Yu.

"Master, Master, please don't kill me, please don't kill me!"

Ling Yu remembered what Shi Tao had said before and turned pale with fright.

"I'll ask you one last time, do you know you were wrong?"

Shi Tao asked expressionlessly.

"I know I was wrong, I know I was wrong."

Ling Yu wept uncontrollably. "Master, it's all my fault. That day, Uncle Shen called you and mentioned Chen Fan's name. I had a sudden wicked thought and hid outside to eavesdrop. If I hadn't eavesdropped, none of this would have happened. Master, please, please give me another chance. I won't do it again, I'll never do it again, sob sob sob..."

"Ugh."

Upon hearing his words, Shen Si and the others sighed.

What's the point of saying all this now?

"Good boy."

Shi Tao patted his head, and the next second, he slapped the other man on the chest.

"Master, Master."

Ling Yu stared wide-eyed at Shi Tao in disbelief, black blood trickling from the corner of his mouth as he collapsed to the ground.

"President?"

"meeting……"

Chang Fei and the others were also stunned.

They never expected that Shi Tao would actually keep his word and kill Ling Yu in front of everyone.

Chen Fan sighed softly.

To an ordinary person, Ling Yu's heart meridian was shattered, and he was certain to die.

However, he could see that before Shi Tao made his move, he used his inner energy to protect the last bit of the other person's heart meridian. As long as the rescue was timely, the person could still survive.

Of course, even if Ling Yu survives this ordeal, his physical condition will be far inferior to that of an ordinary person. He won't be able to practice martial arts, let alone walk for long periods of time.

President, you still can't bring yourself to be ruthless.

However, he didn't intend to expose him, but instead said, "Sorry, Chairman."

"No, Chen Fan, I'm the one who should apologize."

Shi Tao turned his back to Chen Fan and shook his head.

"If I had been stricter with him and hadn't spoiled him so much, he wouldn't have ended up like this. Let me take care of Ling Yu's body."

"Of course, after crippling Ling Yu, I said that he was your responsibility, Chairman."

"Thanks."

With a thought, Shi Tao put Ling Yu's body into the Yellow Sand Tower.

"President..."

Chang Fei hesitated, as if he wanted to say something but then stopped.

Non-vegetation, ruthless Practice makes perfect.

Even if you've raised a dog for over ten years, you'll develop an attachment to it, let alone a person.

"Don't worry, I'm fine."

Shi Tao shook his head. "Ling Yu deserved what he got, there's nothing more to say. Let's talk about what we need to face next."

Chang Fei nodded obediently.

Yes, although Ling Yu is dead, the mess he left behind is still here.

"Hahaha."

Song Tian laughed, as if afraid that everyone would forget their current situation, and said, "Shi Tao, I want to see how you will deal with the situation ahead. And you surnamed Chen, you are indeed very strong, but can you withstand two of my Song family's ancestors by yourself? Not to mention, you also killed Karl and offended the Revival Society. Hehehe, the Revival Society's power is much stronger than my Song family's."

"Don't bother, I'll show you how I handle this."

Chen Fan said something indifferently.

Before he learned the Emperor's Aura Observation Technique, he would indeed be extremely worried.

However, mastering the art of observing the emperor's aura is equivalent to having the ability to predict the future. Knowing exactly what will happen in the future will greatly reduce the difficulty.

Even if he were truly outmatched, he could still easily escape.

With a thought, an image immediately appeared in his mind.

Two days later, a large group of people arrived at the Jiangnan Martial Arts Association. Among them were elderly men with white hair and beards, as well as blond-haired, blue-eyed people from the Maple Kingdom.

The people they brought surrounded the Martial Arts Association in layers, making it impossible for them to get through.

In contrast, the association headquarters was deserted, with only Shi Tao, Shen Si, and a few others remaining.

However, they showed no fear in the face of so many figures outside.

Chen Fan understood.

He only has two days left.

Ideally, we could break through to the Celestial Realm within the next two days, which would greatly increase our chances of rescuing Shi Tao and the others.

Under normal circumstances, even if one has not broken through to the Celestial Realm, if one's true essence has greatly increased and one can fight ten Celestial Realm warriors without being at a disadvantage, then one might have some confidence in protecting everyone.

The worst-case scenario is that two days later, his true energy will not have increased much compared to now. He might be able to kill two or three Celestial Realm warriors, or even those in the mid-stage of the Celestial Realm, but then his true energy will be exhausted, and he himself will be in danger of dying.

"So, the next question is how to fill about 90% of the space in the Qi Sea within two days."

Having identified his target, Chen Fan looked at Shi Tao in front of him and said, "President, I'm leaving the Song family members to you. I'll take my leave now and return in a few days."

He did not try to persuade them to leave.

Firstly, given their identities, it would be difficult for them to escape the pursuit of the Song family and the Revival Society.

Secondly, even if we try to persuade them, they probably won't leave.

"it is good."

Shi Tao nodded; he knew what Chen Fan was going to do.

Be extra careful.

"I will."

Chen Fan glanced at the group of people in turn, then turned and walked out.

"Hello!"

The fifth son of the Song family spoke up: "You're leaving already? Didn't you say you were going to stay and let us see how you were going to deal with our two ancestors?"

"Yes, did you go back on your word? Or were you already scared and deliberately made up an excuse to run away, or did you really run away?"

Seeing Chen Fan disappear into the hall, the Song family was overjoyed.

In their eyes, Chen Fan was clearly afraid.

Then, they turned their attention to Shi Tao and his group.

"Shi Tao, are you just going to let him go like that? Aren't you worried that he won't come back?" Song Tian laughed.

"It's better if they don't come back."

Shi Tao glanced at him and looked out of the hall. "He is currently only at the True Yuan Realm, yet he can kill a Celestial Realm martial artist. Once he reaches the Celestial Realm, your two ancestors of the Song family will be powerless against him."

"you!"

Song Tian was speechless.

Yes, they saw Karl's death clearly.

It can be said that Karl had no chance against Chen Fan. Even when he went into berserk mode, he could only last for a second or two at most.

If this kid is allowed to grow up any further, it's hard to say whether our two ancestors will suffer the same fate when they stand before him.

"You're talking nonsense!" Song Wu retorted angrily, "He's a True Yuan Realm martial artist? Who are you trying to fool? That kid is clearly a Celestial Realm martial artist! Otherwise, how could he have used Giant Spirit Hand so many times in a row?"

"Second Brother is right. How could a True Yuan Realm martial artist possibly unleash the Giant Spirit Hand with the limited true energy within their body? And several times in a row? Shi Tao, are all the people from your Jiangnan Martial Arts Association so unreliable?"

"Hehe, if you think Brother Chen is a Celestial Realm martial artist, then so be it. If that makes you feel better, then it's perfectly fine." Shen Si smiled and continued, "What the guild leader said before was also true. If we die, we die. It's no big deal. But Brother Chen is different. His potential surpasses all of ours. We're still counting on him to avenge us in the future."

"That's right. If you offend a Celestial Realm martial artist, your Song family and the entire Revival Society will probably not be able to sleep peacefully."

The others also laughed.

Song Tian and the others' expressions grew increasingly grim.

That's right, a Celestial Realm martial artist who is all alone and has no ties is the most terrifying.

Even if the Song family's defenses are as solid as an iron barrel, they cannot stop a Celestial Realm martial artist. The opponent can come and go freely, and if this continues, the Song family will surely be filled with fear.

But it's different for martial artists at the Celestial Realm who have something to care about.

"I shouldn't have let him leave like that." Song Tian felt regretful when he thought about this, but then he thought again, he himself was a hostage, why should he want to keep the other person?

After leaving the Martial Arts Association, Chen Fan headed straight for the highest point in Jiangnan City.

By absorbing the primordial energy of heaven and earth, one can gain a maximum of about 1500 points in one night. Even if you include the daytime, it will only be 6000 points in two days, which is only 5% of the threshold value.

What good is an extra 5% of true qi? It won't be of much help in the battle two days from now. If you want it to be helpful, this value needs to be at least ten times higher.

50%!

This means that the total amount of true energy in his body has reached more than 6 million. Such a huge amount of true energy can be used more than sixty times in a row with the Giant Spirit Hand!

In fact, the number of times might be more than that, because as his internal energy increases, the percentage of passive recovery remains the same, but the amount of internal energy will increase.

He wouldn't be afraid even if he faced more than ten Celestial Realm warriors.

Therefore, he had to search everywhere for rare and precious materials to replenish the true essence within his body.

Standing at the highest point, Chen Fan looked around and saw that many places in the vast Jiangnan city were radiating various kinds of light.

Those are all kinds of rare and precious materials; the stronger the effect, the deeper the aura they emit.

However, these were all owned by someone else. He looked into the distance and saw that the sunset glowed in all directions, especially in the south.

"Let's go there and take a look."

Chen Fan moved.
